Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Xylazine is a non-opioid sedative which has spread rapidly throughout the US illicit drug supply. This study aimed to describe the spread of xylazine throughout the UK illicit drug supply. METHODS Xylazine detections in human biological samples were collated from toxicology laboratories operating in the United Kingdom with the date, location, case type, xylazine concentration and co-detected drugs (with quantifications where performed) detailed, where permitted, by the corresponding coroner. Drug-testing cases positive for xylazine were collated from the Welsh Emerging Drugs and Identification of Novel Substances (WEDINOS) drug-testing postal service with the date, location, purchase intent and co-detected drugs detailed. Drug seizures made by UK law enforcement were communicated by the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities with the date and location detailed. RESULTS By the end of August 2023, xylazine was detected in 35 cases from throughout toxicology, drug-testing and drug seizure sources covering England, Scotland and Wales. There were no cases reported from Northern Ireland. Xylazine was detected in biological samples from 16 people. In most cases where full toxicology results were provided, xylazine was detected with heroin and/or a strong opioid (n = nine of 11), but this polydrug use pattern was not evident in all cases (n = two of 11), suggesting a wider circulation of xylazine in the UK illicit drug market beyond heroin supplies. Evidence from WEDINOS supports this claim, as all 14 drug samples (100%) submitted from across the UK contained xylazine; however, in none of these cases was heroin the purchase intent but rather counterfeit prescription medication tablets (n = 11 of 14), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) vapes (n = two of 14) or white powder (n = one of 14). Additional evidence for the spread of illicit xylazine comes from five drug seizures made by law enforcement. CONCLUSIONS Xylazine has penetrated the UK illicit drug market and is not limited to heroin supplies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Isotonitazene is a novel opioid that was first reported in Europe in 2019. There have been no reports of the detection of isotonitazene in patients presenting to the emergency department with acute drug toxicity. AIM There was an increase in presentations to our emergency department with acute opioid toxicity in August 2021. We aim to describe this outbreak and provide detail on two cases in which isotonitazene was quantified in serum samples. METHODS Serum samples were available for comprehensive toxicological analysis for two presentations. Written consent was obtained and the samples were analysed through a Thermo XRS ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography system, interfaced to a Thermo Q Exactive high-resolution accurate mass spectrometer, operating in heated positive ion electrospray mode. Acquired data were processed using Toxfinder software (Thermo) against a regularly updated in-house database. RESULTS There was an increase in acute opioid presentations to our emergency department from a median of 10 per month to 36 in August 2021. Twenty were treated with naloxone, and 23 were admitted to the hospital for observation and treatment. Serum sample analysis from two patients with acute opioid toxicity responsive to naloxone detected the presence of isotonitazene (0.18 and 0.81 ng/ml). CONCLUSION We report a cluster of acute opioid toxicity presentations to our Emergency Department with detection of isotonitazene in two cases. Analytical screening is important in determining the presence of novel psychoactive substances (NPS) and to help inform the public health of the implications of NPS use, particularly during clusters of acute recreational drug toxicity presentations.

Abstract
CONTEXT Acute toxicity caused by illicit substance use is a common reason for emergency department (ED) presentation. Knowledge of the substances involved is helpful for predicting and managing potential toxicity, but limited information is available about the accuracy of patient-reported substance exposure. This study assessed the accuracy of the history of exposure in those reporting use of a single substance by comparison with those identified by detailed toxicological analysis, focusing on synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRA). METHODS Adults (≥16 years) presenting between March 2015 and July 2021 to participating UK hospitals with toxicity after reporting use of a single illicit substance were included. Exposure details were documented from medical records and blood and/or urine samples analysed using high-resolution accurate mass liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HRAM LCMS). Sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of the exposure history were calculated by comparison with biological sample analysis ("gold standard"). RESULTS Single substance exposure was reported for 474 (median age 33 years, IQR: 18 range 16-75, 80% males) patients. Analysis commonly identified multiple substances (Median 3, IQR 2-5). A history of exposure was documented for 121 of 151 patients where a SCRA or metabolite was detected on analysis (sensitivity 80.1%, 95% CI 72.9, 86.2%). Corresponding proportions were lower for 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, 44/70, 62.9%., 95% CI 50.5%, 74.1%), heroin 41/108 (38.0% 95% CI 28.8-47.8%) and cocaine (22/56, 31.3%, 95% CI 20.9, 43.6%). CONCLUSIONS Multiple undeclared substances were detected analytically in most patients reporting single substance use. Clinicians should be alert to the potential presence and toxicity of unreported substances when managing patients presenting after substance misuse.

Abstract
Synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs) pose a danger to public health. This study focused on individuals experiencing recreational drug toxicity who had used 5F-MDMB-PICA.Patient records were evaluated regarding vital signs, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and clinical features. Liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) confirmed and quantified the presence of 5F-MDMB-PICA (and/or metabolites) as the only SCRA present in the serum of 71 patients. Cannabinoid activity was evaluated by a cannabinoid receptor (CB1) bioassay, to assess the relationship between serum concentrations and ex vivo human CB1 activation potential. Furthermore, a link with the clinical presentation was appraised.5F-MDMB-PICA and five metabolites were pharmacologically profiled in vitro, revealing theoretically possible contributions of two active in vivo metabolites to overall cannabinoid activity. Serum concentrations of 5F-MDMB-PICA were correlated to the ex vivo cannabinoid activity, revealing a sigmoidal relationship. The latter could also be predicted based on pharmacological characterization of 5F-MDMB-PICA and its metabolites and an in-depth investigation of the bioassay outcome. Clinically, the GCS showed a significant trend (decrease) with increasing ex vivo cannabinoid activity.This is the first study to evaluate possible toxic effects of 5F-MDMB-PICA in a unique large patient cohort. It allows a better understanding of 5F-MDMB-PICA and metabolites in humans, suggesting a negligible contribution by 5F-MDMB-PICA metabolites to the overall cannabinoid activity in serum. Additionally, this work shows that in vitro pharmacological characterization allows close prediction of an individual's ex vivo CB1 activity, the latter showing a relationship with the level of consciousness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRA) are commonly encountered new psychoactive substances. Here we report the recent detection of ADB-BUTINACA in samples from patients attending United Kingdom emergency departments with toxicity after suspected drug misuse and describe the associated clinical features. METHODS Consenting adults (≥16 y) presenting to participating hospitals with toxicity after suspected drug misuse have been included in the Identification Of Novel psychoActive substances (IONA) study since March 2015. Demographic and clinical features are recorded and blood and/or urine samples analysed using high-resolution accurate mass liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. RESULTS By December 2021, analytical data were available for 1279 IONA participants and ADB-BUTINACA was detected in at least one sample from 10 (9 males, age range 16-51 median 45 years), all presenting since February 2021. Smoking 'spice' was reported by four patients, two had ingested edible "cannabis" gums and four reported heroin use (2 intravenous, 1 smoked, 1 route not known). Co-use of pregabalin (oral) and crack cocaine (smoked) were also reported. In 3 cases ADB-BUTINACA was the only substance detected, while in seven other substances of misuse were also detected including other SCRA, opioids, benzodiazepines cocaine and pregabalin. Clinical features reported in these 2 groups respectively included reduced level of consciousness (3/3, 6/7), agitation (0/3, 4/7), tachycardia (0/3, 3/7), seizures (1/3, 1/7), hallucinations (1/3, 1/7), hypotension (1/3, 1/7). Metabolic acidosis (1/3, 0/7) and respiratory acidosis (1/3, 0/7), All 10 patients recovered with supportive care, including intubation and ventilation for one case. The median length of hospital stay was 19 h (range 2.6-131 h). CONCLUSIONS ADB-BUTINACA has recently emerged as a drug of misuse in England. Clinical features of toxicity are consistent with those of other SCRA and include reduced level of consciousness, respiratory and/or metabolic acidosis, seizures, confusion and hallucinations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stratifying risk of postoperative pulmonary complications after major abdominal surgery allows clinicians to modify risk through targeted interventions and enhanced monitoring. In this study, we aimed to identify and validate prognostic models against a new consensus definition of postoperative pulmonary complications. METHODS We did a systematic review and international external validation cohort study. The systematic review was done in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. We searched MEDLINE and Embase on March 1, 2020, for articles published in English that reported on risk prediction models for postoperative pulmonary complications following abdominal surgery. External validation of existing models was done within a prospective international cohort study of adult patients (≥18 years) undergoing major abdominal surgery. Data were collected between Jan 1, 2019, and April 30, 2019, in the UK, Ireland, and Australia. Discriminative ability and prognostic accuracy summary statistics were compared between models for the 30-day postoperative pulmonary complication rate as defined by the Standardised Endpoints in Perioperative Medicine Core Outcome Measures in Perioperative and Anaesthetic Care (StEP-COMPAC). Model performance was compared using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROCC). FINDINGS In total, we identified 2903 records from our literature search; of which, 2514 (86·6%) unique records were screened, 121 (4·8%) of 2514 full texts were assessed for eligibility, and 29 unique prognostic models were identified. Nine (31·0%) of 29 models had score development reported only, 19 (65·5%) had undergone internal validation, and only four (13·8%) had been externally validated. Data to validate six eligible models were collected in the international external validation cohort study. Data from 11 591 patients were available, with an overall postoperative pulmonary complication rate of 7·8% (n=903). None of the six models showed good discrimination (defined as AUROCC ≥0·70) for identifying postoperative pulmonary complications, with the Assess Respiratory Risk in Surgical Patients in Catalonia score showing the best discrimination (AUROCC 0·700 [95% CI 0·683-0·717]). INTERPRETATION In the pre-COVID-19 pandemic data, variability in the risk of pulmonary complications (StEP-COMPAC definition) following major abdominal surgery was poorly described by existing prognostication tools. To improve surgical safety during the COVID-19 pandemic recovery and beyond, novel risk stratification tools are required. FUNDING British Journal of Surgery Society.

Abstract
The phencyclidine derivative 3-Methoxyphencyclidine (3-MeO-PCP) is a potent dissociative hallucinogen. Sought for recreational use as a novel psychoactive substance, it can also induce acute psychological agitation and pathophysiological cardiorespiratory effects. Due to the harms associated with its use, 3-MeO-PCP was added to the 'Green List' of materials covered by the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances as a Schedule II substance by the United Nations Commission on Narcotic Drugs in April 2021. There have been 15 previous reports of fatal intoxications following 3-MeO-PCP use, but only one was attributable to 3-MeO-PCP intoxication alone. In this report we detail the first fatality due to 3-MeO-PCP intoxication to be reported in the UK, along with a review of the surrounding literature. Whilst the blood concentrations associated with 3-MeO-PCP toxicity and fatality remain unclear, by providing details of sample collection and storage conditions this case will aid in future interpretations. Furthermore, this case suggests that 3-MeO-PCP toxicity may be exacerbated by exercise. Users of 3-MeO-PCP should be cautioned against its use as a 'club drug' or in a similar setting where elevations in heart rate, body temperature and blood pressure may occur.

Abstract
Synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRA) share minimal structural similarities to tetrahydrocannabinol or themselves. Due to their heterogeneous structures and the rapid appearance and disappearance of new SCRA on the drug scene, the quantitation of SCRA has not been attempted extensively. We present a wide series of SCRA concentrations based on a single-point calibration using peak height ratios for the extracted ion chromatogram of the protonated precursor ion against that of the internal standard. These concentrations are viewed as indicative only given the use of a single concentration "calibrator" based on the response of a deuterated analogue of a structurally related compound. What is of note, is that, despite the potential differences in potency the majority of SCRA seem to have relatively similar concentrations in postmortem cases.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Non-medical use of novel benzodiazepines has recently become common. Here, we describe the recent frequent detection of flubromazolam in patients attending United Kingdom emergency departments. METHODS Adults presenting to participating hospitals with toxicity after suspected drug misuse were studied between March 2015 and January 2021. Clinical features were recorded using consistent methodology and biological samples analysed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass-spectrometry. RESULTS Flubromazolam and/or its mono-hydroxylated metabolite were detected in samples from 14 of 957 patients, all presenting since July 2020. Reported clinical features included reduced level of consciousness (10), confusion/agitation (6) and acidosis (5) but multiple other substances were detected in all patients. All patients survived to discharge (length of hospital stay 3.0 to 213 h, median 24.1 h). There was no correlation between admission blood/serum flubromazolam concentrations (range 1.7-480.5 ng/ml, median 7.4 ng/ml) and Glasgow Coma Scale or length of hospital stay. In one patient who needed intubation and ventilation for five days, there was an exponential decline in flubromazolam concentrations with time (calculated half-life 39.8 h). Hydroxyl-flubromazolam was also identified at all time points. CONCLUSIONS Flubromazolam has been detected frequently in drug users presenting to UK emergency departments since July 2020. Prolonged toxicity may occur as a result of the long half-life of flubromazolam and the production of metabolites likely to be active.

Abstract
Metabolites of synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) are widely used as markers for identifying SCs' intake. Polydrug use involving SCs and ethanol may generate new metabolites, namely SC ethyl esters, hereby shown for the first time as new blood markers of SC-alcohol concomitant abuse. We report a case involving both the presence of 5F-PB22 and ethanol and the detection of their transesterifcation product, namely 5F-PB22 ethyl ester, in a postmortem blood sample. This marker was found retrospectively in a preserved femoral blood analyzed via liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry. A single-point calibration was used to estimate the concentration of 5F-PB22-Et in the sample, which found to be 0.4 μg/L. Retention time and fragment ions (within ±1 mmu extraction window) of 5F-PB22-Et in the sample gave a remarkable match with a synthetic reference material. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of an SC ethyl ester in a biological sample to indicate SCs and ethanol co-consumption.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to determine the impact of preoperative exposure to intravenous contrast for CT and the risk of developing postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing major gastrointestinal surgery. METHODS This prospective, multicentre cohort study included adults undergoing gastrointestinal resection, stoma reversal or liver resection. Both elective and emergency procedures were included. Preoperative exposure to intravenous contrast was defined as exposure to contrast administered for the purposes of CT up to 7 days before surgery. The primary endpoint was the rate of AKI within 7 days. Propensity score-matched models were adjusted for patient, disease and operative variables. In a sensitivity analysis, a propensity score-matched model explored the association between preoperative exposure to contrast and AKI in the first 48 h after surgery. RESULTS A total of 5378 patients were included across 173 centres. Overall, 1249 patients (23·2 per cent) received intravenous contrast. The overall rate of AKI within 7 days of surgery was 13·4 per cent (718 of 5378). In the propensity score-matched model, preoperative exposure to contrast was not associated with AKI within 7 days (odds ratio (OR) 0·95, 95 per cent c.i. 0·73 to 1·21; P = 0·669). The sensitivity analysis showed no association between preoperative contrast administration and AKI within 48 h after operation (OR 1·09, 0·84 to 1·41; P = 0·498). CONCLUSION There was no association between preoperative intravenous contrast administered for CT up to 7 days before surgery and postoperative AKI. Risk of contrast-induced nephropathy should not be used as a reason to avoid contrast-enhanced CT.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the long-term trends of new psychoactive substance (NPS) detection in pooled urine samples collected across a city centre. METHODS Pooled urine samples from portable stand-alone urinals were collected on a monthly basis over 5.5 years (July 2013-December 2018) across a city centre. These were analysed using a high-performance liquid chromatography system, interfaced to a high-resolution accurate mass spectrometer. Data were processed against a database containing over 2000 drugs/metabolites including over 800 NPS. RESULTS In total, 44 NPS were detected with variation over time including cathinones (15, 34.1%), synthetic cannabinoids (8, 18.2%) and 21 (47.7%) other NPS. Since the introduction of the UK Psychoactive Substances Act (May 2016) cathinone detection has decreased with minimal detection over the last 4 months of the study. Synthetic cannabinoids were not detected on a regular basis until July 2016 with a subsequent variable detection frequency. There was a consistent, low level detection frequency of all other NPS throughout the study, but which appears to have increased alongside the decrease in cathinone detection. CONCLUSION Pooled urine analysis of samples taken from portable urinals in a city centre can be used as an effective monitoring tool to determine long-term trends in the use of NPS. The results of this study demonstrate the impact of the Psychoactive Substances Act and reflect the findings of population surveys and clinical studies. Triangulation of these data with other data sources will enable greater insight into the NPS phenomenon.

Abstract
Animal sport doping control laboratories are constantly reviewing ways in which they can improve their service offering whilst ensuring that they remain economically viable. This paper describes the development and assessment of a rapid and economical method for the detection of intact glucuronide conjugates of three anabolic steroids and their metabolites along with three corticosteroids in canine urine. The analysis of intact drug conjugates for animal sport doping control is generally not performed routinely as it presents a number of analytical challenges, not least of which is the lack of availability of appropriate reference standards. Here, we report the development of a UHPLC-MS/MS method using APCI in the negative ion mode for the detection of intact phase II conjugates, including the importance of in vitro incubations in order to provide appropriate reference materials. Cross-validation of the developed method demonstrated that the detection capability of the intact phase II conjugates of stanozolol, boldenone, nandrolone, and their metabolites along with the corticosteroids dexamethasone and methylprednisolone was equivalent to that achieved in routine race-day screens. The new process has been in operation for approximately 2 years and has been used to analyze in excess of 13500 canine urine samples, resulting in a number of positive screening findings. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported use of a routine screen for intact drug conjugates within animal sport doping control.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION 3-Hydroxyphencyclidine (3-HO-PCP) is a new psychoactive substance (NPS) and a hydroxy derivative of phencyclidine (PCP), and N-ethylhexedrone (Hexen) is a synthetic cathinone. We describe an analytically confirmed case of acute toxicity related to the use of both 3-hydroxyphencyclidine and N-ethylhexedrone. CASE REPORT A 56-year-old male was brought to the Emergency Department by ambulance with hyperthermia (39.9 °C), sinus tachycardia (150 beats per minute), reduced consciousness, ocular clonus, and vertical nystagmus. He was treated with cooled intravenous (IV) fluids and IV benzodiazepines. Following 1 hour of treatment, his temperature fell to 37.7 °C, he developed rhabdomyolysis (creatine kinase peaked at 5999 IU (normal range < 229 IU)): he was managed with supportive measures and was discharged after 25 hours. The patient admitted regular use of Hexen and recent use of 3-HO-PCP. Analysis of urine and serum identified 3-hydroxyphencyclidine and metabolites, N-ethylhexedrone and metabolites, and clephedrone and metabolites. DISCUSSION This is a case of analytically confirmed toxicity to 3-HO-PCP and N-ethylhexedrone. The acute toxicity reported in this patient is consistent with the use of 3-HO-PCP, but there were sympathomimetic and serotonergic features potentially consistent with the cathinone N-ethylhexedrone. The description of the acute toxicity of NPS, such as these, is vital to aid medical toxicologists and emergency medicine physicians treating patients who use them.

Abstract
IntroductionSynthetic cannabinoids (SC), designed to mimic delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, the natural component of cannabis, have seen a rapid increase in popularity since 2008. Nearly 200 SC have been detected to date. However, there are limited data available reporting the changing trend in their use. Here, we report the temporal changes in SC use, as well as the demographic profile of users.MethodIn this retrospective study, case background and toxicology findings were collected from forensic toxicology reports dated between 1 April 2014 and 31 March 2018 that included a positive result for the presence of one or more SC and/or metabolites.ResultsA total of 113 cases were positive for SC; 103 (91.2%) of the individuals were male, with a median age of 40 years (range 15–80 years). Over the four-year time period, a total of 12 different SC were detected; seven of these SC were detected in more than six cases each. The most commonly detected SC had a lifetime of one to two years before being replaced. Discussion and conclusion: Our data show that SC were being used for approximately one to two years before they were superseded by newer structures. It is therefore extremely difficult to predict future patterns of SC use and is consequently not advisable to offer limited screening.

Abstract
Novel synthetic opioids (NSOs) are a class of novel psychoactive substances (NPS) that are growing in popularity and presenting a significant public health risk. Included in this class are derivatives of the highly potent analgesic, fentanyl. Cyclopropylfentanyl (CycP-F) was first reported to the EU Early Warning System in August 2017, and was subsequently linked to more than 100 deaths in the US alone. Limited pharmacological, pharmacokinetic or toxicological data is available for many emerging NSOs; however we can expect novel fentanyl analogues to present limited detection windows, short onset, narrow therapeutic indices and the potential for very high potency. Knowledge of the metabolism of these drugs is essential for the identification of analytical targets for their detection. Therefore in vitro metabolites of CycP-F were produced using human liver microsomal incubations. Metabolites formed were elucidated using liquid chromatography-high resolution accurate mass analysis (LC-HRAM). Identified metabolites were added to our accurate mass screening database for NPS which was utilised for subsequent screening analysis. CycP-F and metabolites were identified in two human blood case samples. Eleven metabolites were identified in vitro, with the major metabolites produced via N-dealkylation, monohydroxylation and N-oxidation. Analysis of the positive case samples identified four in vivo metabolites, all of which were observed in vitro. The major metabolite identified in vitro and in vivo was the N-dealkylated nor-metabolite; two further mono-hydroxylated and one dihydroxylated metabolite were detected in vivo.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We tested the ability of a type 1 diabetes (T1D) genetic risk score (GRS) to predict progression of islet autoimmunity and T1D in at-risk individuals. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We studied the 1,244 TrialNet Pathway to Prevention study participants (T1D patients' relatives without diabetes and with one or more positive autoantibodies) who were genotyped with Illumina ImmunoChip (median [range] age at initial autoantibody determination 11.1 years [1.2-51.8], 48% male, 80.5% non-Hispanic white, median follow-up 5.4 years). Of 291 participants with a single positive autoantibody at screening, 157 converted to multiple autoantibody positivity and 55 developed diabetes. Of 953 participants with multiple positive autoantibodies at screening, 419 developed diabetes. We calculated the T1D GRS from 30 T1D-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms. We used multivariable Cox regression models, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves, and area under the curve (AUC) measures to evaluate prognostic utility of T1D GRS, age, sex, Diabetes Prevention Trial-Type 1 (DPT-1) Risk Score, positive autoantibody number or type, HLA DR3/DR4-DQ8 status, and race/ethnicity. We used recursive partitioning analyses to identify cut points in continuous variables. RESULTS Higher T1D GRS significantly increased the rate of progression to T1D adjusting for DPT-1 Risk Score, age, number of positive autoantibodies, sex, and ethnicity (hazard ratio [HR] 1.29 for a 0.05 increase, 95% CI 1.06-1.6; P = 0.011). Progression to T1D was best predicted by a combined model with GRS, number of positive autoantibodies, DPT-1 Risk Score, and age (7-year time-integrated AUC = 0.79, 5-year AUC = 0.73). Higher GRS was significantly associated with increased progression rate from single to multiple positive autoantibodies after adjusting for age, autoantibody type, ethnicity, and sex (HR 2.27 for GRS >0.295, 95% CI 1.47-3.51; P = 0.0002). CONCLUSIONS The T1D GRS independently predicts progression to T1D and improves prediction along T1D stages in autoantibody-positive relatives.

Abstract
The oral tablet formulation of butylscopolamine, which is available without prescription, is commonly used by trainers of racing greyhounds to treat functional urethral obstruction. As medication control of butylscopolamine is therefore required for such use to ensure the integrity of greyhound racing, an administration study was performed in six greyhounds to determine the pharmacokinetics of orally administered butylscopolamine. A single dose of one 10 mg butylscopolamine tablet was administered orally to simulate this use in greyhound racing. Blood, urine and faeces were collected at regular intervals from the greyhounds for up to 9 days and butylscopolamine concentrations determined. There was some, but very limited, absorption of butylscopolamine, with rapid elimination from plasma with a mean half-life of 2 hr. Urine concentrations initially declined in a similar manner to the plasma pharmacokinetics but then entered a much longer half-life of approximately 50 hr. Faecal concentrations declined to very low levels between 48 and 120 hr. The use of orally administered butylscopolamine for functional urethral obstruction in greyhounds is unjustified due to this very limited drug absorption. Medication control of butylscopolamine's antispasmodic effect on the digestive tract is possible by setting screening limits based on the urinary and faecal drug levels as determined in this study.

Abstract
CONTEXT Synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists are the largest group of new psychoactive substances reported in the last decade; in this study we investigated how commonly these drugs are found in patients presenting to the Emergency Department with acute recreational drug toxicity. METHODS We conducted an observational cohort study enrolling consecutive adult patients presenting to an Emergency Department (ED) in London (UK) January-July 2015 (6 months) with acute recreational drug toxicity. Residual serum obtained from a serum sample taken as part of routine clinical care was analyzed using high-resolution accurate mass-spectrometry with liquid-chromatography (HRAM-LCMSMS). Minimum clinical data were obtained from ED medical records. RESULTS 18 (10%) of the 179 patient samples were positive for synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists. The most common was 5F AKB-48 (13 samples, concentration 50-7600 pg/ml), followed by 5F PB-22 (7, 30-400 pg/mL), MDMB-CHMICA (7, 80-8000 pg/mL), AB-CHMINACA (3, 50-1800 pg/mL), Cumyl 5F-PINACA (1, 800 pg/mL) and BB-22 (1, 60 pg/mL). Only 9/18 (50%) in whom synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists were detected self-reported synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonist use. The most common clinical features were seizures and agitation, both recorded in four (22%) individuals. Fourteen patients (78%) were discharged from the ED, one of the four admitted to hospital was admitted to critical care. CONCLUSIONS Synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists were found in 10% of this cohort with acute recreational drug toxicity but self-reported in only half of these. This suggests that presentations to the ED with acute synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonist toxicity may be more common than reported.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Synthetic Cannabinoid Receptor Agonists (SCRAs) are the largest group of new psychoactive substances reported to the European Warning System and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime to date. The heterogeneous nature and speed of diversification of these compounds make it challenging to accurately characterise and predict harms of these compounds in pre-clinical studies, ahead of their appearance. CASE REPORT We report the case of a 19-year-old female who purchased three products from a headshop: two new psychoactive substances (sachets of "cannabis tea" and "mushroom tea") as well as two LSD blotters. After the "cannabis tea" was smoked and the two LSD blotters and "mushroom tea" were ingested, the patient became tachycardic (HR 128), developed seizures, agitation, visual hallucinations as well as suspected serotonergic toxicity (sustained ankle clonus 20-30 beats) 1-2 hours after use. She was treated with 1 mg of intravenous midazolam. Symptoms/signs resolved within 13 hours. No further supportive care was required. Plasma, blood, and urine samples confirmed the presence of two SCRAs: 5FAKB-48 and 5F-PB-22. The patient also reported therapeutic use of both fluoxetine and citalopram for depression. DISCUSSION To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of non-fatal intoxication with 5F-AKB-48 with analytical confirmation and exposure times. It also highlights the difficulties in understanding the pattern of toxicity of certain SCRAs in the context of psychotropic medications/co-morbid mental illness.

Abstract
The British Association for Psychopharmacology guidelines specify the scope and targets of treatment for bipolar disorder. The third version is based explicitly on the available evidence and presented, like previous Clinical Practice Guidelines, as recommendations to aid clinical decision making for practitioners: it may also serve as a source of information for patients and carers, and assist audit. The recommendations are presented together with a more detailed review of the corresponding evidence. A consensus meeting, involving experts in bipolar disorder and its treatment, reviewed key areas and considered the strength of evidence and clinical implications. The guidelines were drawn up after extensive feedback from these participants. The best evidence from randomized controlled trials and, where available, observational studies employing quasi-experimental designs was used to evaluate treatment options. The strength of recommendations has been described using the GRADE approach. The guidelines cover the diagnosis of bipolar disorder, clinical management, and strategies for the use of medicines in short-term treatment of episodes, relapse prevention and stopping treatment. The use of medication is integrated with a coherent approach to psychoeducation and behaviour change.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Analysis of anonymous pooled urine samples from street urinals has been used to demonstrate time-trends in the detection of classical recreational drugs and novel psychoactive substances (NPS). AIM This study aimed to expand this to undertake a geographical trend analysis of classical recreational drugs/NPS across UK. METHODS Samples of anonymous pooled urine were collected from street urinals that had been in place for one night in April 2014 in nine cities across the UK. Collected samples were then analysed for the presence of recreational drugs, NPS anabolic steroids using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution accurate mass full-scan mass spectrometry and gas chromatography coupled to electron impact ionization mass spectrometry operating in selected ion monitoring and full-scan modes. RESULTS Ten classical recreational drugs, nine NPS and four anabolic steroids were detected across the nine cities; the range of detection was from 1 in Leeds to 14 in London. The most common classical drugs were cocaine (9 cities) and 3,4-methylenedioxy-methamphetamine (8 cities); the most common NPS was 4-methylmethcathinone (5 cities). In addition there was variation in the detection of NPS, with methylhexaneamine detected only in Bristol and London, piperazines (3-trifluoromethylphenylpiperazine and 1-benzylpiperazine) and pentedrone only detected in Birmingham and the cathinone methylone only detected in London. CONCLUSIONS There is variability in the detection of classical recreational drugs, NPS and anabolic steroids across UK, likely reflecting variation in their use. This technique can be used to supplement drug use surveys to determine geographical and time trends in the use of these substances. This is important to ensure appropriate targeting of drug-related interventions.

Abstract
PURPOSE Methiopropamine use in Europe has been detected since January 2011, but there is limited information on its acute toxicity. Here, we describe a case of analytically confirmed methiopropamine acute toxicity. CASE REPORT A 27-year-old woman with no previous medical history was brought to the emergency department with palpitations, chest tightness, anxiety, nausea, vomiting and visual hallucinations following the use of a 'Quicksilver'. Toxicological analysis of her urine collected at presentation to the ED detected methiopropamine at a concentration of 400 ng/mL. Other drugs were also detected but at a much lower concentration. CONCLUSION This is the first ever case report of analytically confirmed acute toxicity related to methiopropamine use. It confirms the potential for significant acute toxicity with cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and psychotic symptoms thus providing further information to help with managing these patients and allow legislative authorities to consider the need for its control.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Maternal responsiveness is important in early language development, but its measurement by direct observation has to date been unrealistic in community settings because of training and time constraints. We report on the development and cross-sectional comparison of a global rating of maternal responsiveness against a detailed measure of responsiveness at age 24 months. METHODS The community-based sample comprised 246 toddlers and their mothers, identified as being slow-to-talk at age 18 months within the Let's Learn Language population-based randomized controlled trial. At age 24 months, mother-child dyads were videotaped during 15 minutes of free-play and children undertook a standardized language assessment. Videos were blindly rated on both the new global measure, comprising a single rating of responsiveness on a five-point Likert scale, and a detailed rating of responsiveness known to predict language outcomes, comprising a sum of specific maternal responsive behaviours. RESULTS The global rating scale required relatively little training and ratings could be conducted in real time. The global and detailed ratings of maternal responsiveness showed moderate correlation (r = 0.44; P < 0.001). Small positive correlations were found between the global rating and expressive (r = 0.23; P < 0.001), receptive (r = 0.28, P < 0.001) and total language (r = 0.28; P < 0.001) at age 24 months. CONCLUSION The global rating scale was efficient and moderately effective as a measure of maternal responsiveness. It is possible that, combined with other risk measures including concurrent language skills, it could strengthen prediction of which children will and will not go on to experience lasting language difficulties.

Abstract
Synthetic cannabinoid use has become widespread, leading to increased burdens on health care providers. Symptoms range from agitation and psychosis to seizures and acute kidney injury. We report a case where a patient was assessed and treated twice within 12 h for seizures following synthetic cannabinoid intoxication. Blood sample determinations showed low concentrations of analogues not previously reported, some of which are legal. Clinicians should be aware that synthetic cannabinoids may cause an array of severe health consequences. Given the ever evolving structure of available analogues, clinicians must also be prepared for other unexpected adverse effects.

Abstract
Background: There is a need to research interventions that improve access to and convenience of breast cancer screening services. Methods: We conducted a randomised trial comparing invitations to out-of-hours appointments with standard office hour appointments. Women who were to be invited for routine breast screening were randomised (3 : 1 : 1 : 1) to one of these screening invitations: standard office hour appointment, office hour appointment with the option to change to an out-of-hours appointment, weekday evening appointment, or weekend appointment. Results: A total of 9410 women were invited to an office hour, 3519 to an office hour with the option to change, 3271 to a weekday evening, and 3162 to a weekend appointment. The offer of an initial out-of-hours appointment was associated with a non-significant decrease in attendance rates (73.7% vs 74.1%). The highest attendance was observed in the group offered an initial office hour appointment with the option to change to out-of-hours (76.1% vs 73.3% for standard office hour, P=0.001), with 7% of invitees exercising the option to change. Conclusion: The optimum strategy for improving attendance at breast screening is to offer a traditional office hour appointment and including in the letter of invitation an option to change to an evening or weekend appointment if wished.

Abstract
AIM Analysis of urine samples collected across a city centre, for the detection of novel psychoactive substances (NPS). DESIGN Cross-sectional study of anonymized urine samples used for the analysis of classical recreational drugs, NPS and metabolites. METHODS Pooled urine samples collected from portable stand-alone four-person urinals across a city centre were analysed using full-scan accurate-mass high-resolution liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry. Data were processed against compound databases containing >1700 drug compounds and metabolites. RESULTS Seven established recreational drugs (3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine, cocaine, cannabis, ketamine, 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine, methamphetamine and amphetamine) and six potential NPS [hordenine (all 12 urinals), cathine (11), methylhexaneamine (9), 4-methylmethcathinone (6), methiopropamine and metabolites (2) and methoxetamine and metabolites (1)] were detected. Methylhexaneamine, methiopropamine and hordenine are currently uncontrolled in the UK, whereas methoxetamine is currently subject to a Temporary Class Drug Order. Metabolites of the anabolic steroid nandrolone were found in two urinals and trenbolone metabolites and clenbuterol in one urinal. CONCLUSION Analysis of pooled urine samples collected anonymously from stand-alone urinals in a large inner city can detect the use of recreational drugs, NPS and anabolic steroids. Metabolite detection indicates actual drug use, metabolism and elimination rather than simply discarded drugs in the urinals. This technique by confirming the actual drug(s) used has the potential to be additive to currently used datasets/key indicators providing more robust information for healthcare authorities, legislative and law enforcement on the drugs actually being used.
